بِنظامِ عَساكره وَلَهُ

بِالعَدل الشامل وَالنعمِ
God has truly sent him
With encompassing justice and bounty
يا مَصر لَكِ السَعد الأَبدي
بِالداورِ ذا شبلِ الأَسَدِ
O Egypt yours is everlasting bliss
With the ruler, scion of the lion
ملك الأَقطار أَخي المَددِ
رَب الإِحسان مَع الكَرَمِ

Lord of kindness, endowed with generosity
يا مَصرُ لَكَ الحَظ الأَوفرْ
بِمَليك كَاللَيث القسورْ

With a king like a towering lion
في الحَرب لَهُ سَيف أَبتَرْ
تَخشاه جَبابرةُ الأُممِ
In war, his sword is relentless
Feared by tyrants of nations
نَعم المولود مَع الوالدْ
كنز الإنعام المتُزايدْ
Blessed is he born to his father
Treasure of increasing favor
بحر قَد فاضَ عَلى الوافدْ
برّ المَعروف أَبو الهِمَمِ

Doing good, protector of resolves

بِالرَأي الصائب وَالشممِ
His opponent admits to him
Of wise opinion and determination
وَالجُند بعالي همتهِ
يَقتنص الأَسدَ بِصَولتهِ
The soldiers with their lofty zeal
Hunt the lion with their might
وَيَسوق الحَتف بِشدتهِ
لعدوّ باغٍ مجترمِ
And lead the captive with their force
Against the hostile transgressor

For the kindness of his noble breast
رَسخت أَحكامك كَالراسي
وَعلت أَركانك بالباسِ

And your pillars raised with splendor
وَصفت أَوقاتك لِلناسِ
في حُكمٍ زاهٍ مُنتَظمِ
Your times arranged for the people
With wise and brilliant governance
يا أَفضل صَدر قد وافى
وَأَجلّ نَصير قَد صافى
O best of hearts that came to pass
O noblest ally of utmost loyalty
لا زلت تُراقب إنصافا
وَتصدّ الضدّ عَن الحَرمِ
You still observe with fairness
And ward harm from the sanctum
وَتروح وَتَغدو بِالفَرحِ
وَعدوّك يُمسي في التَرحِ
You go and come with joy
While your enemy ends in ruin
وَتَعيش بصدر مُنشرحِ
في العَسكر مَنشورَ العلمِ
And you live with an eased breast
In an army with fluttering banners
